Burnham to Tell Schools in England to Adapt Teaching to Local Business Needs Andy Burnham's announcement that schools in England will adapt their curriculums to meet local business needs is being hailed as a revolutionary move to tackle the jobs crisis for young people.
Critics, however, are skeptical about its feasibility.
Burnham's plan, inspired by his own Greater Manchester baccalaureate initiative, aims to task schools with making their curriculums more responsive to local jobs markets.
